Gion Koishi

Gion Koishi is right on Gion Street, and you can find its sign just by looking up. There are ice cream and some traditional Japanese desserts, many of which are matcha flavored. The Japanese really love matcha.

It was founded in 1936 and is a very historic shop. There are all kinds of Kyoto candy on display in the shop. Kyoto candy is colorful and cute, and the packaging is very colorful and dreamy. It can be eaten and bought, and it is also very good as a souvenir! The dessert is decorated with Japanese fruit, very delicate and beautiful, drizzled with their secret black sugar syrup, it makes you feel so happy just by looking at it and eating it❤️ The seating area is made of wood, which is very Japanese style. The store is quite clean and tidy. I have to admire the Japanese for paying so much attention to overall details!

I arrived around 4pm and the restaurant was almost full. I ordered a parfait, which was just the right amount of sweet and delicious until the very last bite. The restaurant has a Kyoto-esque atmosphere, so it's perfect for a relaxing break between sightseeing.
